Epigenome and Epigenetic
Abstract
Although the chemical and molecular structure of DNA understood, thanks to the findings of the last ten years, is known that
everything is not over the DNA. To sustain of the life are requires of the appropriate response to environmental stimuli. Embryo to
until the end of life, changes in gene expression observed. Genes in the genome is expressed at certain times and in certain cells.
This new grip is called that "epigenetic". All of the mechanisms of epigenetic regulation is called that "epigenome". Epigenetic
alterations cause of the gene silencing or activation, such as a genetic mutation or deletion mechanism. However, epigenetic
alterations are emerging without change of the base sequence, and occurring often recyclable. Arrangement of the gene regulation is
vital importance to understanding of the cells how they differentiated and they can be carcinogenic. In this study the information is
compiled about that epigenetic, which is important at least as genetic.
